Chapter 493 A Clash Like No Other (1)
Erix and others didn't have to wait for long as the group that went to a challenge spot in this area soon emerged after ten minutes.
The moment they arrived, Rin and others used their prepared skill to kill all of them.
A clamoring chaos echoed in the area due to the skills.
Erix didn't use his skills because he didn't want to kill. He had already gathered a lot of Glory Points, so he gave others a chance to get some points.
"Two escaped," Erix said with a glint in their eyes.
"Can you track them?" Korin asked.
Erix shook his head. "They used an artifact's power as far as I could tell, but it doesn't matter. Let's go in."
"Yeah, no need to waste more time," Lilith nodded.
The group entered the challenge spot.
…
"Found it," Ragna's eyes opened with strange black lightning with white motes flickering around him. "The user of Heavenly Nimbus Shen…"
The clouds above him thundered before Ragna vanished.
'The day 3 is going to end after a few hours, so I might not get the chance now. However, I can still go and measure that group.'
'That bastard who escaped after killing people in my group was also there,' Ragna's eyes crackled. 'I'll just kill him and return for now.'
Meanwhile, the two people who escaped were from a coalition group consisting of multiple groups.
Those two were the strongest of the group, with one of them being a leader, but they weren't expecting this type of ambush.
However, they wanted to give tit for tat and wasted no time in contacting the other groups in their alliance.
It didn't take long for around 28 people to gather at the same challenge spot area where Erix and others went.
One person among them was particularly more powerful and others seemed to give respect and fear to him. He looked like someone in his teens, with his gray hair with violet strands and distant eyes appearing in stark contrast to his appearance-wise age.
"How many are there?"
Hearing his question, the leader of Tyrual Throne Hall who escaped from here quickly floated beside him and replied, "Ten people, Lord Ikaiel."
"Mhmm, don't interfere. Just make a big formation to seal the area to prevent them from escaping," Ikaiel plainly said. 'If I want to get a higher spot in the ranking, I'll have to finish those ten with a single attack.'
Ikaiel Lokern—Rank 3rd on the individual leader board.
*Crackle…*
Suddenly, the clouds above strangely changed and turned darker with some colorful hues flashing in them.
Ikaiel narrowed his eyes as he looked up, using a skill and inspecting everything, 'Someone's there, though he is not hiding. Who is so bold to reveal himself over such a big group.'
They were 28 powerhouses with all of them having their Mind Zone unlocked and considered Elite Empyreans! This was a force no one would want to take head-on alone.
However, this notion was shattered as everyone saw a terrifying black lightning bolt striking down but it paused mid-air before everyone saw a man with long wild white hair standing on a small piece of golden lightning cloud.
Ikaiel looked at him and couldn't help but feel a considerable threat based on his intuition. 'Never seen him before or heard him…another dark horse like that Erix?'
His mood worsened.
"What business do you have here?" A girl with a twin silver ponytail asked as she floated on the same level as Ragna, her arms crossed her breasts. She wore a tight open-belly t-resist that highlighted her chest and paits with a half jacket hanging around her arms.
Her get-up was akin to a cyberpunk-style idol.
"What the fuck you are asking him?" Suddenly, a spiky blue-haired guy with a crazy expression attacked Ragna with a rain of flexible dark blue sparkling lasers that shot at him.
"Kill whoever that is not part of our group. That's how it rolls in here, Miss Rexy."
That was true. But it also depended on the person whom they were facing and their guts.
In the next second, everyone only saw a flash of dark gold lightning before the spiky blue-haired guy turned into ashes and vanished from the spoke.
The lasers struck a slick blue barrier with eccentric patterns around Ragna and were nullified.
[100 Glory Points gained.]
Ragna narrowed his eyes and said, "I am here to observe. Make a move against me and you're dead beyond doubt."
His eyes glanced at everyone before settling on Ikaiel, the one that felt strongest in this big group.
"Scram," Ikaiel's eyes turned cold. "If you are here to observe, then don't make yourself known."
*Grrr….*
A malevolent visage appeared behind Ikaiel that expanded in size, looking akin to a devilish joker with a pair of sparkling deep violet eyes.
'A spiritual art of a realm house?' Ragna's eyes flickered while his lips shaped into a smile. "Interesting."
"Make a move and your original plans might go down the drain," Ragna causally said before he even turned his back on the group and just looked at the challenge spot occupied by Erix and others.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
'Who is this crazy bastard?' Rexy thought, her silver twin tails jumping in surprise. Her eyes flickered slightly before a pristine glass covered her right eye. 'Measure his active potential power level.'
Numbers started flickering in her eyes before a shocked expression appeared on her face, and she immediately contacted Ikaiel, 'Ika, his AP Power level is 1-Z. This bastard…he is most likely a reincarnator from an upper dimension realm.'
1-Z meant that his active potential power level was at the peak of the First Dimension Realm. 1 meant the number of the dimension realm, and Z meant the peak of that dimension.
Ikaiel was 1-W.
Of course, this doesn't represent one's chances of winning or losing due to external factors like items, artifacts, and cunningness not being counted. It only measured the level of power one could potentially explode out based on their current parameters.
But it would be unwise to clash against someone like Ragna unless they were willing to expend serious effort to kill him, which they planned to spend on the group that killed 8 people of their coalition.
As such, the atmosphere turned silent for a while with everyone waiting on Ikaiel's movement.
But since he didn't do anything, everyone calmed down and just waited while talking about other things.
Meanwhile, Erix and others were on the verge of finishing their challenge, unaware that an unprecedented danger awaited them the moment they emerged.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
